Your bow tuck bag is very pretty. I have the pattern, have some fabric that I think would be gorgeous. But I am wondering if I should use some less expensive first. What do you think?

I ordered mine from Amazon.com; it was $6.38 plus $3.99 shipping.

a while back somone put a tutorial on here showing how to put a zipper in one. I thought i saved that but I can't seem to find it. Does anyone remember it?

I just learned how to bookmark a bowtucks tote tutorial. Before if i wanted to keep something from the board I just saved the email. i have about a dozen or so saved.

Is this the one you're looking for?

Is this the tute on zippers for the bow tuck you wanted?
http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-64427-1.htm I just went to the search function above and tped in "bow tuck purse zipper" and it popped up.

If you're a perfectionist, then I would consider making your first bag with less expensive fabric so you can work out the kinks. I was very happy with how the outside of my bag looked, but I have a couple minor kinks inside that I hope to improve upon on my second go-around. If you're not a perfectionist, then I say go ahead with your 1st choice fabric. Overall, once I figured out the pattern, it was not an overly difficult bag to make.

Good luck!

Beautiful and looks like fun :-)

thanks It is the same one.

I love the fabric you have used. What a wonderful job also.
I need to find this pattern and make it. I am sure it is a bag everyone would get great use out of.
